Property code: OC-WYKE1

This elegant end-terrace cottage is a fantastic retreat for couples and families eager to explore a secluded part of the North Devon coast. Situated in the small, friendly village of Mortehoe, this sympathetically converted former vicarage dates from the Georgian era and offers ample space for up to four guests, with plenty of room for a pair of canine companions. Featuring a welcoming wood burner and a delightful, shared garden, the cottage is a cosy getaway within easy reach of a dog-friendly beach and offers miles of stunning coastal walks.

Entering this fresh and airy property you will step into a stylish open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with wooden floorboards and plenty of light streaming in. The inviting lounge has cosy seating and a wood burner, perfect for a quiet night in. The central dining area is perfect for sharing a family meal which you can rustle up in the sleek, fully equipped kitchen. Upstairs, there’s a choice of two light and relaxing bedrooms: a pretty double and a charming twin room. Stepping outside, the shared garden has a lawn and picnic table, providing a lovely space for you to dine alfresco as your pets run about. There’s also a handy children’s play area.

The tranquil clifftop village of Mortehoe is just half a mile from the sheltered cove at Grunta with its delightful beach and rock pools. A great base for keen surfers, the village has a tearoom, pub and fish and chip shop. There are miles of breathtaking walks for you and your canine friends to discover, with nearby destinations including Morte Point (0.5 miles), and Bull Point Lighthouse (1.5 miles), with chances to spot seals along the way.

Wykeham is a cosy, warm and comfortable cottage situated in a good, quiet location for walking the coastal path. We enjoyed having the woodburner, which was lovely to light after a long hike. The cottage was equipped to a good standard with everything required for a self-catering holiday. We slept incredibly well in the very comfortable bed. We shaRead morell return! Hide

A very comfortable cottage in an excellent location. Good walking from the cottage especially along the coast path. Lovely gardens to sit outside to eat or just relax.
